TRAMONTO Tramonto is one of Korumburra?s most historic and beautiful houses. Coming up to its centenary, it was originally built in 1917 by Colonel H. R.

The entrance hall with its crystal chandelier leads into a charming lounge room with a curtained box window alcove and two leadlight windows either side of the fireplace. They were installed by the same artist who maintains Ripponlea?s stained glass. A massive timber mantelpiece runs the full length of the room.Beyond the lounge is the stunning dining room with an impressive brick fireplace and timber mantelpiece. The leadlight box window is champagne raw silk and looks out onto magnificent old oak trees.
